Hi! I’m Kelly and welcome to our 2nd Chance Restoration page!  We are a family owned business started by accident after I lost my corporate job due to layoffs. I needed to provide an income somehow, and even though I had been painting small furniture pieces since I was young, it never occurred to me to take a hobby and passion and turn it into something bigger.  We started small with a desk here and there, and then bureaus, etc.  Then we noticed a need for cabinets to be transformed (bathrooms AND kitchens), and banister updates, and whitewashing of fireplaces etc…  We pride ourselves on seeing a need and being the ‘go to’ place for so many who are looking to do some refreshes to their homes.

Here we are more than 10 years later with hundreds of clients, a 98% referral rate, countless pieces that have been restyled and thousands of cabinet doors that have been transformed. We love working with our clients who are striving to keep their family heirlooms as showcase pieces and are excited to see what each year has in store for us. I hope you’ll join us on the journey and enjoy looking through our website for inspiration…

I'm back! 2 weeks of unplanned eye 👀surgery followed by 2 planned weeks for the Holidays 🎄and tomorrow kicks 🦵off our 2025 Cabinet Refinishing season 😍

Want to know my favorite part of this year so far? White Dove isn't even on the schedule for MONTHS📅! My clients so far will be doing beautiful colors such as White Down, Acadia White, Fieldstone, Stonington Gray, Navajo White, Accessible Beige.... I think my paint store will be calling to do a wellness check soon if they don't see my usual order😂

In the interim, enjoy this beautifully updated kitchen we worked on last summer along with @radzwillaskitchenandbathdesign and WR Interiors. Getting pics after the wall paint, table/chairs, and lighting get updated are my favorite texts ❤️

I can not say enough about Kelly and 2nd Chance Restoration. Kelly just finished painting my 20 year old Natural Maple kitchen cabinets. The cabinets were in near perfect condition and though I wanted a new look I was a bit anxious about the cabinets looking painted. Kelly has done numerous pieces of furniture for me and my family over the years some of which she has labeled as her biggest headaches and everything has come out better than our expectations. This project however was major if it didn’t come out well. Kelly didn’t disappoint, we had her do the cabinets while we were on vacation so she could come and go as she pleased. We returned to a beautiful “new” white kitchen. It looks better than we ever imagined and they truly look like new cabinets. I can’t believe we waited so long to do it. Everyone who has walked in my house can’t believe they are the same cabinets! It is a pleasure to work with Kelly, she is thorough in her estimating and explaining options and the scope of the work. She returns calls, texts and emails quickly. Her prices are always fair and when we returned home there was no sign that they had ever been there, she is extremely neat. I without hesitation recommend her and 2nd Chance Restoration for all refinishing projects.

Working with Kelly was a dream!! She has vision, is always positive, on time, accommodating, and a true miracle worker! From the moment Kelly came to the house for the initial consultation, she was very thorough in explaining the process. She brought color options and suggestions. She also answered any questions we had.

When the process started, Kelly reached out ahead of time to ensure we had everything all set and even came to the house again to walk through the process one more time. When the painting began, the timeline was adhered to and you also would never know that she was there. No mess was left behind and I didn’t even have to empty my cabinets!! My husband and I are thrilled with the final results. We love our kitchen again. When guests come over they all comment on how spectacular the kitchen looks and they are shocked to know that the cabinets were painted. The quality of her work is phenomenal!

We highly recommend 2nd Chance Restoration! I wish I had more projects for her!!
